The first paper “Molecular science and engineering: a powerful transdisciplinary approach to solving grand challenges” will be published to coincide with the event. It lays out the emerging concept of molecular science and engineering – as a powerful way to tackle global challenges, such as the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. The paper also describes IMSE’s ongoing community-building and research-driving activities, and how these can help break down commonly encountered obstacles in ‘convergence-style’ research.

As part of the growing worldwide molecular science and engineering landscape, IMSE is well placed to work with external partners to deliver innovative commercial products and materials in a fast and flexible fashion.
